Can I Run GPT-OSS 120B on AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395?

Written by Jakub Rusinowski · Last updated July 12, 2026

Yes. GPT-OSS 120B needs 71.9 GB at 8K context (70.5 GB weights + 1.4 GB KV cache/overhead) at Q4_K_M and the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 has 128 GB, leaving about 56.1 GB of headroom, at roughly 42 tok/s (estimated) with room for up to 128K of context.

Assumes an 8K-token context with an f16 KV cache. A longer window needs more; a quantized KV cache needs less. “Max context” is the largest window that still fits in 128 GB. Figures are estimates from parameter count, quantization and memory bandwidth — the analyzer lets you tune KV-cache quant and context.

Context costs VRAM too. At Q4_K_M on the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395: 8K 71.9 GB · 32K 73.7 GB · 128K 81 GB. Every window this model publishes still fits 128 GB.

What to do next

Nothing to change — run it at Q4_K_M. If you want more capability, check whether the next size up also fits.
